    Kansas State fans are madder than I have ever seen

    Right, but a newspaper (or other legit media outlet) beat reporter isn’t going to report anonymous sources. Thats not how it works. An anonymous tip might be a place where a journalist starts digging, but it’s not going to be reported without confirmation or evidence from other sources...

    VIDEO: Otz goes off on Kansas State

    I’m going to go out on a limb and assume you’re one of the ones who can’t differentiate between an opinion piece and a news piece. Start there, and the world will start to make a little more sense.

    VIDEO: Otz goes off on Kansas State

    This is one that drives me nuts. Reporters for reputable outlets aren’t going to use Twitter randos and just call it “unnamed sources” to write whatever they want. That’s not how it works, and this is a BIG accusation that would open the paper up to libel if they weren’t following journalistic...

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Well, Love was drafted in the 1st round, you see.

    All I know is that Big 12 basketball is what SEC football pretends to be.

    The table is set. Time for Purdy to shut up the critics.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    It won’t have enough of an impact alone, but it’s not an either/or. The fact is, almost every car on the road today won’t be in 15 years. The car that replaces it could be electric, or it could be another ICE, but either way it’s going to be replaced. Transitioning to EVs is probably one of...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    If building refurbishment/retrofitting for higher energy efficiency was being heavily pushed or mandated, we’d hear people arguing about how we should be doing something about transportation instead. It’s a way to try to discourage any change - always arguing we should be doing something about...

    NA White Claw

    The first swig isn't bad (assuming it's a hot day and the White Claw is ice cold), but it goes downhill really quickly from there. I'm not a drink snob, but the seltzers I've tried so far give me the same aftertaste as really cheap beer (I mean really cheap) to some degree.

    *** Washington vs Michigan 2024 FB natty game ***

    College football historically hasn't seen long runs with multiple teams ending the season ranked in the top 4 year after year like we've seen the last 10. In all, 15 different schools made the 10 CFPs, with three schools (Bama, Clemson and tOSU) taking 19 of the 40 total bids. 6 schools got...

    Nick Saban retiring

    The Bama fanbase and boosters are going to have to adjust their expectations. It's unlikely anyone matches Saban's run, mostly because nobody really did what he did before and none of it's getting any easier. Between super conferences, 12-team playoffs, NIL, transfer rules, and a whole lot of...

    Crazy Stuff Your Pooch Has Eaten

    We had a dog for a bit when I was about 5. He ate the cape from my Superman action figure. Of course, my parents didn’t believe me and thought I’d just lost it somewhere. A few days later, we were at the vets office and the dog poops in the lobby. Sure enough, there’s the cape. I wouldn’t shut...

    *** 2023 Chicago Bears ***

    Absolutely agree. I don’t trust this organization to make good QB decisions, and drafting a QB #1 is a massive investment. It burns a huge amount of resources, and the outcome is unclear even for the best franchises. Moving the draft pick is going to net them more return than moving Fields...

    *** 2023 Chicago Bears ***

    Fields isn’t the problem and switching him out for another QB doesn’t change much of anything. They’ll still have all the same deficiencies up and down the roster, and they’ll just replay the last 6-7 years all over again. He may never be a franchise QB, but he’s good enough to build around...

    WERE NOT A YOUNG TEAM ANYMORE: ISU looks forward to the future after Liberty Bowl loss

    This year went much better than most of us had any reason to expect. With everyone they have coming back and the new B12, the next couple of years are a chance for Campbell to set a new high water mark for the program. IMO, all the talk about not capitalizing with recruiting after the 2020...

    Tampa Out

    No matter how many points the “We need fewer Bowls that mean more!” crowd makes, this is still the point they can’t argue. By their logic, most games don’t matter at all. And what is the point of the games in the first place? The players enjoy playing, the fans enjoy watching, and there’s money...
